Noel Edmonds
Noel Edmonds
For crimes against saturday evening viewing he was rightly committed to the media wilderness.
Yet despite also amassing other earlier charges including being repeatedly caught as an insipid dj in charge of a turntable,he's released early (tagged I trust)
Although sidekicks Mike Smith,Chegwin and Blobby are nowhere 2b seen.
And those who tuned in regularly were never punished.
Now he's apparently dealing out more tat for the masses on C4,which I refuse to watch out of principle.
And despite the fact they've golden handcuffed him,what price the Beeb embracing him once more to do battle with Ant and Dec ?
"You want more than Johnny Woss ? Why of course.No problem."
"What are you going to do ? Well,it doesn't matter,we'll file you under Graham Norton till we find something"
It's all so predictable .
Oh, and I don't like his beard either -assuming he's still got it.

Re: Noel Edmonds
Headed for the Beeb? Doubt it.
Edmonds was a stand-in for Johnny Walker on Radio 2 a while back, and it was pitiful. Whatever meagre talent he may once have had, he'd obviously lost it completely.
Then again, one flukey hit show (which really could be presented by anyone in love with their own voice) and Noel's away, telling anyone who'll listen what's wrong with television these days - a embittered man stuck in the past.
His collosal ego would probably cause problems. They'd be wise to steer clear.

I admire your optimism about the Beeb aspect Last Word.
But I fear "Noel Edmond's Pet Win Prizes" looms.And he'll need more than a poop-scooper to deposit his salary somewhere appropriate.
Amazing a man who's made millions on the back of no talent should be "embittered" isn't it -how about "bloody grateful"

Re: Noel Edmonds
His time in the wilderness was the height of comedy ... He was so desperate to be noticed again that he used to ring up a certain Westcountry regional daily with endless bollocks campaigns he either started or leant his name to ... Farmers Against Just About Everything mostly. On one of those desperate attempts to keep his face at least known somewhere, he voluteered to shave his beard off for charridey and did it.
He ended up doing the worst TV advert ever for that little regional newspaper ... think Pearl & Dean stuff, except shot on half the budget. The advert basically ended up with someone chucking a bucket of water all over him, pretending it was a splash from a passing car. Having seen it, I preferred to imagine it was someone taking a slash from a nearby bridge.
He was the poster child for 'how the mighty have fallen and are so, so, so, so desperate to have someone notice them again'. Then he got that Deal Or No Deal gig. There's no justice in the world.

Re: Noel Edmonds
I can see him back on the BBC.
You only have to look at the BBC's track record and the "talent" they spend our Licence money on.
For example, Jonathan Woss, Chris "Ginger Tosser" Evans, Terry Wogan, Davina's chat show.
I like the way the BBC say they need to pay these people big money, otherwise they will go to the competition.
Can you see other channels queuing up to pay the BBC's kind of wages to the list of names I have just given?
Nothing to do with the BBC having an inflation-proof (in fact inflation beating) income from the licence fee, and so much money they don't know how to spend it all.
What I would like to know is if these people are demanding so much money and saying they will go to ITV if the BBC do not cough-up - why not just let them go and concentrate on developing new talent.
At least we would have a few fresh faces on the box - and it would take the heat out of this "talent inflation".

On the contrary.
I believe I'm right in pointing out that Noel Edmonds:
1] Alerted Hendrix to the fact that a Wah pedal, if placed before his Fuzz Face pedal, would not function as normal, but would act as a superb treble-booster for solos.
2] Gave Jimmy Page the idea to make a Led Zeppelin movie, the result being The Song Remains The Same.
3] Whilst improvising upon a bassoon in the presence of a couple of Pink Floyd members, came up with a nice little arpeggio which later became the riff to the song Money.
4] When he heard that AC/DC were looking for a new singer, suggested the singer from 70s one-hit-wonder band Geordie as a replacement for the literally dead-drunk Bon Scott.
5] Actually played the piano part on the studio version of Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody.
6] When Eddie Van Halen confided in him that he just could not play fast enough for the music in his head, suggested to him that he cheat by using the right hand to finger additional notes. Noel even coined the term 'tapping', to give it some validity.
7] Helped his old mate Mike Oldfield out with a little plumbing job - the rest is history.
8] When his chum Elton John was going through a potentially terminal bout of writer's block, arranged the death of Princess Diana.
